Answer:

The correct answer is letter A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the quotation mark is similar to italic characters, the correct pattern for citing in MLA is the following: Film title (The Pelican Brief). Dir (Dir. Alan J. Pakula). First Name Last Name. Distributor (Warner Home Video), Year of release (2009). Medium (Blu-ray). If considered important, some other elements can be included, such as in letter A, where the abbreviation Perf. refers to performers (Julia Roberts, Denzel Washington, Sam Shepard, and John Heard.)
